Shooting Bunnies From a Motorboat and Other Bizarre US Laws

On this episode of Our American Stories, why is it illegal to shoot rabbits from a motorboat? Or to import skunks into certain states? And who decided these things needed to be written into law in the first place?

Author Winter Prosapio joins Our American Stories to explore the strange, funny, and often forgotten laws that still exist across the United States. Drawing from her book Weird U.S. Laws, she explains how many of these rules began as practical solutions to real problems, from livestock theft to public safety, before becoming historical leftovers on the books.
